Band saw HBM400ALU-Z

horizontalfor non-ferrous metalsfor aluminum

Description The HBM400ALU-Z aluminium band saw is engineered for cost‑effective, high‑speed cutting of aluminium and other non‑ferrous metals in series production. The optimised machine design and thin saw blade minimise kerf and material loss while ensuring stable, reproducible cutting processes. The enclosed housing with direct connection to extraction systems supports clean operation and operational safety.

Key advantages

• High cutting speed: Operating range 250–3,000 m/min for short cycle times (example: round bar Ø 300 mm approx. 10 s).
• Optimised material clamping: Dual vertical clamping units with independently movable elements enable the feed gripper to position close to the blade, reducing off‑cut length and improving material utilisation.
• Process reliability: Centred feed via prismatic V‑roller conveyor and matched peripheral equipment for stable production.
• Extended saw life: Pronounced band wheel angle reduces alternating bending loads on the saw band, enabling long service intervals.
• Short cycle times: Dynamic, parallelised axis movements minimise non‑productive times.
• Robust band guidance: Large‑diameter guide rollers with centralised lubrication and sealed bearings for precise guidance and low maintenance.
• Material savings: Thin blade reduces kerf and chip volume compared with circular saws.
• Diameter flexibility: Process varying material diameters without blade changes or long setups.
• Quick blade change: Tool‑free, single‑person saw band replacement to reduce downtime.
• Energy efficiency: Modern drives and narrow cutting channel lower energy consumption.
• Efficient extraction: Enclosure and designated extraction points capture chips, dust and oil mist.

System layout / main components

• Chip evacuation unit (high‑performance extraction for chips, dust and oil mist).
• Feeding gripper (precise feed positioning close to the blade).
• Tilting device (material tipper for unloading trim cuts and rest pieces into scrap containers).
• Infeed magazine (lift & carry system with material recognition for reliable transfer to roller conveyor).
• Prismatic V‑roller conveyor for centred flow of round stock.
• Marking unit for short cuts.
• Chain cross‑conveyor for short cuts and buffer zones for long cuts.
